The Walking Dead #100
Jul. 11th, 2012 06:28 pmSo... are we going to talk about it?
As the story arc comes to a conclusion, as Rick Grimes and crew come face-to-face with a very real and nasty threat.
Oh boy, was THIS painful to go through.
But for thoseof us who follow the book, we all know that it does NOT pull punches, there are no easy outs, and when bad things happen to good people, it's not in a cartoon way, but very very painful.
Fair warning, I've explicitly left out the gore and the blood, but if you DO pick up the book, you've been warned. It's is agony to read and you may need a few minutes not to jump into the book itself and seek berserker justice.
( Bring the pain. )

Anyone read 'Rise of the Governor'?
Jan. 4th, 2012 11:19 pm
For fans of The Walking Dead, Robert Kirkman (co-writing with Jay Bonansinga) just came out with a novel detailing the origins of the Governor. As he was one of my favorite characters in the series, I was really looking forward it to it. That being said, having finished it, I'm not sure what to think. Without spoiling anything, there are some twists that really end up changing the overall story, and I'm not sure if it works for the better. If you've read it, you probably know what I'm talking about. Definitely not what I expected at the very least.
That being said, the novel does do a great job at humanizing the Governor and making him a fairly tragic and sympathetic character. I'd probably give it a solid 'B'.
So has anyone else read it, and if so, what were your thoughts?
For legality, from The Walking Dead #29...

Jul. 15th, 2011 01:16 pmAs I am dropping my DC as soon as DCnU hits, I need to pick up something. And I am always grateful that here at Scans_Daily I can find something new to stimulate my mind. CosmicBookNews has the news from yesterday about a project I think might be very interesting.

After my Diode post I remembered another book that John Rozum wrote that came out the next week. This story, whether intentional or not, shows the difference between eccentric and crazy in the DCU. When a billionaire like Lex Luthor believes that Superman might be a scout for an invading alien fleet, he's just Lex Luthor. When a normal person has such delusions, they're taken for crazy.
